If anything, that proves my point that McCarron isn't required as a backup if the Bengals get a good enough offer. Lost twice to a team that Ryan Mallett and the 5-11 Ravens beat.
Unless a team is willing to overpay greatly, I think it would be crazy to trade McCarron this year.
AJ is as good an insurance policy at QB as there is in the NFL right now, at least IMO. He knows the system, he can step right in if needed, and he's got valuable regular and postseason experience under his belt. You can't just deal that away. If Andy should go down for a period of time, I would feel much more confident knowing AJ would be manning the helm.
